.223 neck flaring?
Quote from Reloader on May 13, 2013, 8:19 pmHey, I am using a Dillon 650 and I am trying to load .223. Does the powder drop station flare the neck to accept the bullet as it does in pistol calibers? I am getting copper fragments being stripped off during the bullet seating station. Any help please.
